  • why do we have to pour it that way im fine with just drinking from the bottle howcast

  • well, never going to be waiting again but good to know what i did wrong XD

  • i never saw anyone hold a bottle like this before

  • @b3d0w That's because you are eating at the wrong restaurants

  • FYI: You shouldn't hold a bottle the way she was doing i.e. with your thumb up the "punt". It's known as the "proctologist's grip".

  • you will need . an opened bottle of wine!!?ahhha

    nonono... first we need a planet to grow some grapes

  • Wow i never knew there was a way to pour wine (no joke)

  • Wow…

  • yeah she's wiping the tip alright...

  • Oh no, My bottle is closed :/

  • oh thats what i was doing wrong, you need an open bottle of wine

  • Step 1. open the bottle with a corkscrew

    Step 2. Pour the wine in a glass

    YOUR DONE

  • who needs to bother with even pouring the wine just drink it from the bottle

  • Step 7 repeat process using ONE hand

  • This tutorial is more for waiters to gracefully poor over a table full of guests, food, and glasses, but I've never seen anyone massage the lip of the bottle like this lady does. It was a bit vulgar and amusing. A simple wipe is adequate.

  • i thought you have to gently pour it in, and not make it splash in a glass.....

  • Luckily I watched this video or else I wouldn't have been able to pour wine.

  • Nice tip about the towel for chilled wine. I'll only try to sell wine if the place is dead and they've declined cocktails. Two each cocktails for two will usually meet or exceed the cost of wine and is MUCH less time consuming for the server. PLUS, opening a bottle of wine can spread to other tables. The bartender will expect U to tip HIM as much for wine that he hands you as for drinks that he makes for you so the ? you should be asking yourself is "which is faster for me"

  • bottle ---> lips.

  • this video blew my mind

    

  • can I use a closed wine bottle instead? and can I use koolaid?

  • I have worked as a waiter for big functions; often for the military and government departments. wine pouring is the bane of my existence, that and setting a table. table placements are so arbitrary and stupid. i've wasted countless hours re-tilting or readjusting wine bottles, forks, knives etc.... so they are just right.

  • 0:07 Make sure to hold the bottle as awkwardly as you can, maximizing the pretentiousness level while explaining how it is the correct manner of holding a wine bottle.

  • need some water in that ice bucket.

  • Now I can serve it perfectly to my church.

  • BeckyBoo1532 claims to be in college, but can't spell it! lol @ "collage "!

  • I,d rather a full bottle in front of me ,than a full frontal labotomy!

  • I have no idea - why the video maker found a woman even not able to hold the bottle correctly...

  • I have tended bar for over 6 years and have to say.. I have only had one of these anal douchebags whine about wine pouring. (pun intended). He liked the way I poured, but then launched into this diatribe on how TGI Friday's never pours correctly. I wanted so bad to tell him.. NO ONE CARES EXCEPT YOU DEPRESSED, GLORIFIED ADDICTS!! I wanted so bad to kick him in the balls.

  • The label should face the consumer the entire time of pouring. The pour should hit the center of the glass to release the bouquet. When stopping the pour the bottle should be lifted slowly and the hand turned so that the drip slinks down and runs down the right side of the label.

  • wouldn't mind her wiping my bottle

  • @drjhospital Yeah I hope I wasn't the only one who found the sexual innuendo in that.

  • the red wine is flat... not a good wine.

  • Mistakes: 1- Bottle should never touch the glass. 2- Always serve clients from the right side and with right hand. And many others

  • that was almost erotic .....

  • Comment removed

  • I never drink... wine

  • this video is pretty fail....

    1st of all, if you really want to impress me or any true wine enthusiast you need to pour it into a decanter. that does 2 things; 1) it helps the wine breathe improving the palate, and 2) helps keep any particles/sediment from ending up in your glass. Oh and it looks cool too, so i guess 3 things. as for the cloth and holding the bottle all stupid, no one but stuck up assholes and restaurant managers care about that shit.

  • this is incorrect. i work on 2nd ave NYC

  • I work in a fine dining restaurant and thinks that this tutorial is all wrong. The steps are fine but the ways she does it is way too sloppy. That is not how you wipe the bottle at all.

  • You say you work in a fine restaurant but fail to tell us which one. Also, you say she pours it wrong but yet you yourself don't tell us how to pour. She does a fine job in the vid.

  • lol, your funny. she does get the wine out of the bottle in a glass, but there is a ceremony to pouring wine, and it was sloppy for a fine dinning restaurant, but stuff spinning the bottle at the end of the pour is a great hint for everyone who drinks wine.

  • What should she do?

  • this is all nonsense unless you're a waiter. at home i use those great little drip-stoppers for the neck of the wine bottle. to hell with the napkin!

  • @pandurate Agreed. This is only going to be practical if you have someone to impress.

  • Very clear and thorough

  • did you know? howcast annoys me...bad!

  • no i don't know, please explain in very long detailed format

  • shes holding and wiping the wine all wrong

  • What should she do?

  • Nice video, however, wish the video started with her opening the wine. Would be great if there was a video staging a server at the dining table providing wine service to customers.

  • In belgium are the same rules for pouring out wine.

  • Personally i swallow as much as i can as fast as i can out the bottle, followed of course by 30 diazepam and 3 weeks of trying to peice empty black spots of my life back together.

  • lol

  • LOL

  • and we need 6 steps to pour?? -.-

  • we need a tutorial on how to pur a botle of whine????

  • Who gives a flying a fuck about how to pour wine?!Hold the fucken bottle,tilt into the glass,and stop when there's enough!JEEZ!

  • Yeah, its lame how people actually care about this.

  • hahahhahahahah that made me laugh!

  • you would make a shit waiter!!!! smart ass

  • Well it's a good thing Im not planning to be one,ehh? xD

    Fuck you man.

  • you can fuck me but please call me in the morning i dont want to feel used ok?

  • @OhSoAle i hope no1 gv a fk, but my manager and (sometimes) "pro" people do care

  • @OhSoAle Better still, do away ith the glass all together and just down it straight from the bottle.

  • Comment removed

  • @OhSoAle Maybe you should start giving a flying fuck about not only proper wine tasting (not getting drunk beyond recognition) and language. I do realize we are Internet users, but some manners would be advisable.

  • @OhSoAle this is a tuttorial for waiters and not only you dumb ass

  • Nice little tutorial, but someone should tell her how to hold the bottle.

    It's like a woman, hold around the waist.

  • @BlurbFish haha im doing a catering course at collage and you are supposed to hold it at the bottom for some reason mainly tradition but so it doesnt spill

  • @BeckyBoo1532 The funny thing about dining traditions is that they mostly have roots in plain logic and simplicity, it's not about looking nice.

    The reason why holding at the middle of the bottle is better than holding at the bottom, is because you'll have better control of the bottle. Holding at the bottom will not prevent spilling in any way - spill depends on angle and (lack) of twisting.

  • @BlurbFish well its stupid anyway haa i bet u had forgotten that you had left that comment after a year didn't you?

  • @BeckyBoo1532 To be honest, I don't really care when I wrote the comment.

    Someone replied, and I try to answer that person - unless the reply is completely retarded, that is.

  • @BlurbFish ok chillout, jeez. you sound really intense haha

  • @BlurbFish not if you have class. 

  • @VoidOnTuesday Throw the usual "u r rong" and then leave without a word.

    So let's assume you have class; how would you hold the woman?

  • @BlurbFish by the ass, just like the wine =)

  • @VoidOnTuesday I'm not sure that would go as "classy" outside of a cheap night club with prepubescent kids. Maybe you could elaborate a bit on how it's "more classy" than holding a woman around the waist?

  • @BlurbFish I'm french.

  • amateurs

  • Excellent

  • THANX FER DA TIP HOMIE

  • My tutorial...

    How to pour a bottle of wine:

    1. Get a bottle of wine.

    2. Tilt bottle into glass.

    3. Stop pouring wine once the glass is full to the brim.

    4. Walk away.

    MUTCH EASIER!

  • that was hot bottle polishing!

  • This is wrong: you NEVER EVER hold the bottle for the bottom, it is ALWAYS for the middle of the bottle facing the front label to the host!

  • omg i know how to pour a bottle of wine. ALL BY MYSELF. WOW

  • lol, no. You don't wipe the bottle with a napkin. Cleaning off cork dust? If you wipe like that you'll knock just as much debris in as off. Also, if you can properly twist the bottle as you stop pouring, there won't be any wine to wipe off.

    P.S. I don't just pour a 1/3 of a glass of wine, the type of glass will determine the volume of wine to pour. Which is almost always 5oz.

  • Nice try but no...

  • ah... very casual.

  • 1:48 seconds about how to pour a bottle of wine?

  • not too many comments on this one...

  • She seemed nervous, not recommended for restaurant operations

  • ahh yes, being nervous while serving, an all too common trait amongst restaurant staff . . . This is why i drink b4 and during my shift

  • hehe but does ur boss know that u drink during ur shifts, u obviously are not very confident within urself. im sure u hv enough experience to not b nervous. she doesnt even hold the bottle or napkin right lol

  • I love the fun facts at the end of each video.

  • Oh i do too! Lol. Sometimes they are histerical! =P
